2024 is a special year for Fendequip, as we celebrate 20 years of business in the marine industry


Established by our directors – Paul and Lisa Chown in 2004, the company has grown considerably during this period, encompassing a business now which employs 30 members of staff, designing and manufacturing a wide range of mooring products and deck equipment within purpose-built premises on the outskirts of Wincanton, Somerset.

During this time, Fendequip products have become renowned for their quality and durability – both our Fender Hook and maxiStow Inflatable Fender ranges are often the preferred choice for some of the world’s most prestigious new-build Yachts and Superyachts.

Dealer Network

Growth of this size has been aided by developing a network of expert dealers, distributors and chandleries who stock an ever growing range of Fendequip Mooring Products, including our popular Chafe Gear range as well as offering more bespoke services such as measuring for Fender Hooks, Inflatable and Solid Foam Fenders.
